For all the South Carolina vinegary BBQ Sauce lovers out there…here’s a twist, just for you!

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large sweet yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
  • 6 canned San Marzano whole peeled tomatoes, drained
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon of adobo sauce from a can of chipotles in adobo
  • 1 ancho chili pepper, stemmed, seeded, and soaked in hot water for 10 minutes
  • 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • Salt & freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, heat the butter and oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized about 20 minutes.
  2. Add the garlic and cook until warmed through about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the tomatoes, brown sugar, ketchup, adobo sauce, ancho chili pepper, vinegar, stock, and salt, and bring to a simmer. Cover the pot partially, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 1 hour. Set aside to cool for at least 20 minutes.
  4. Puree the sauce in a blender or food processor and strain, discarding the solids. Return to the pot, place over medium heat, and simmer gently until thickened, about 20 minutes more. Cool and refrigerate until ready to serve.
